Default Another what will I run??

OK mods in sig, last time I had some traction problems pretty bad, I just put in my ssf 3500 tc and it is great, Will it make a bigger diff on engine or bottle? Can I expect mid 12's yet? I did learn how to luanch and heat up the tires which i was doing wrong last time. and most importiant. Should I get my car tuned again before I go cuase of the new TC? or should I be ok?

If you were running street tires you shouldnt heat them up.

Something definitley isnt right. You should be running high 12s n/a. And mid to low 11s on bottle. My advice is get some good DRs and heat the hell out of them. Thats what i did and i have a smaller stall than you,NO bolt ons, and 4.10s. Times are in sig. Hope i was of help!
